* An encore telecast of "Saturday Night Live," with host Christina
Applegate and musical guest Passion Pit, averaged a 3.5/8 in metered-market households and a 2.0/7 adults 18-49 in Nielsen's 25 markets with Local People Meters. The 2.0 equals "SNL's" second-highest demo result in the Local People Meters for an encore telecast so far this season, behind only the January 5 rebroadcast that followed a primetime NFL playoff game (2.8/11, with host Louis C.K. and musical guest fun).

Here are the highlights of the nine ad-sustained programs that aired in primetime on the broadcast networks one year ago (1/14/12):

Coverage of the "NFL Playoff: Denver at New England" (29.06 million viewers, #1; adults 18-49: 10.6, #1) surged CBS (29.06 million viewers, #1; adults 18-49: 10.6, #1) to the top on Saturday.

"Saturday Night Live" (5.2/12 in metered-market households) with host Daniel Radcliffe and musical guest Lana Del Rey, dominated its time period with the highest non-sports rating of the night in metered-market households, ahead of all Saturday primetime entertainment telecasts on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox (excludes Fox's 8-8:30 half-hour, which was impacted by an NFL overrun). Versus the same night last year, "SNL" is up 2 percent in metered-market households (5.2 vs. 5.1).

In the 25 markets with Local People Meters, "Saturday Night Live" averaged a 3.0 rating, 12 share in adults 18-49 to rank #1 among the night's entertainment telecasts ahead of all Saturday primetime non-sports programs on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox (excludes Fox's 8-8:30 half-hour, which was impacted by an NFL overrun). "SNL" matched its second-highest 18-49 rating in the Local People Meters so far this season, behind only last week's 4.3/18 for an edition hosted by Charles Barkley with musical guest Kelly Clarkson that followed an NFL Wild Card playoff game.
